Louise B. Sisk

Louise B. Sisk, 95, passed away quietly on Sunday, April 24, 2022, in Mt. Pleasant, SC, surrounded by the love of her family. She was born in Columbia on January 30, 1927, to Ruth E. and Wiley H. Bouknight. Louise was very involved with her church family both in Columbia, then Miami, FL, and finally in Lexington, SC. She served on the Homebound Committee at Lexington Baptist Church. She retired from Colonial Life & Accident Insurance Company. She had served as a volunteer with the Juvenile Arbitration Program in Lexington, SC, and as a mentor at Red Bank Elementary School. Louise and husband, Felton spent their final years in Mt. Pleasant, SC.

Louise was predeceased by her husband, Felton C. Sisk. She is survived by two daughters and sons-in-law, Dr. Barbara S. Gainey and husband, Steve Gainey of Kennesaw, GA, and Sharon Mills and husband, Dr. Richard Mills of Mt. Pleasant, SC. She is also survived by sister-in-law, Felicia Sisk of Columbia, SC, and extended family members, Sara Harwell (Gordon), Ann Sisk Whitten (Ervin) and Bobby Sisk. Louise is survived by her beloved grandchildren: Erin and Matthew Gainey and Christopher Mills (Carley), Tommy Mills, and Tiffany Mills Thompson (Kirby); and five (soon to be six) wonderful great-grandchildren: Ruby, Grady, Charlie, Virginia, Kyle, and Baby Boy Thompson (expected on May 9, 2022). She was predeceased by her sister, June B. Taylor. Surviving also are her loved niece and nephew and their wonderful families, dear friends, and other extended family members.

Louise was a quiet, unassuming lady with a huge capacity to love and care for others. She has shown immense inner strength in her life, especially in the last few years, with a sweet smile and graciousness that touched all who came in contact with her. Her faith and family were paramount to her. Louise was an immensely caring person who kept up with milestone dates and occasions for the special people in her life. She delighted in getting to know and spend time with her precious great-grandchildren, and one of her last family activities was a recent family Easter egg hunt. She was grateful to those who assisted in caring for her husband in his final years and to those who touched her life and assisted her. She impacted many with her friendship and her gifts of meals, phone calls, goodies, and notes. Louise loved her Lord, her family, and her friends dearly.

Her family appreciates all who loved and cared for her.

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, April 29, 2022 at Greenlawn Memorial Park Mausoleum Chapel. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service.

Memorials may be made to Lexington Baptist Church, 308 E. Main St., Lexington, SC 29072, or to a charity of your choice.
